Selenium Components
Selenium Integrated Development Environment (IDE) Firefox add-on that you can only use in creating
relatively simple test cases and test suites
Selenium Remote Control (RC) First Selenium tool that allowed users to use
programming languages in creating complex tests
Selenium WebDriver Newer breakthrough that allows your test scripts to
communicate directly to the browser, thereby
controlling it from the OS level
Selenium Grid To run parallel tests across different machines and
different browsers all at the same time. Parallel
execution means running multiple tests at once.
Driver Initilization
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
WebDriver driver = new InternetExplorerDriver();
WebDriver driver = new EdgeDriver();
WebDriver driver = new SafariDriver();
WebDriver driver = new HtmlUnitDriver();
Advanced Browser Cnfiguration
ChromeOptions chromeOptions = new ChromeOptions();
chromeOptions.addArguments("--ignore-certificate-errors");
chromeOptions.addArguments("user-data-dir=Path");
chromeOptions.addArguments("--headless");
chromeOptions.addArguments("--start-maximized", "--incognito","--disable-notifications" );
driver = new ChromeDriver(chromeOptions);
Desired Capabilities
DesiredCapabilities dc = new DesiredCapabilities();
dc.setCapability(“browserName”, “chrome”);
dc.setCapability(“browserVersion”, “96.0””);
dc.setCapability(“platformName”, “win10”);
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(dc);
Element Locators
driver.findElement(By.id("Id Value"));
driver.findElement(By.name("Name Value"));
driver.findElement(By.className("Class Name Value"));
driver.findElement(By.linkText("Link text Value"));
driver.findElement(By.partialLinkText("Partial Text Constant Value"));
driver.findElement(By.tagName("Tag Name Value"));
driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("CSS Value"));
driver.findElement(By.xpath("Xpath Value"));
driver.findElement(with(By.tagName("input")) .above(passwordField));
driver.findElement(with(By.tagName("input")) .below(emailAddressField));
driver.findElement(with(By.tagName("button")) .toLeftOf(submitButton));
driver.findElement(with(By.tagName("button")).toRightOf(submitButton));
driver.findElement(with(By.tagName("input")).near(emailAddressLabel));
driver.findElement(new ByAll(By.className("ElementClass Name"), By.id("Element Id"), By.name("Element Name")))
Elements Operations
WebElement element = driver.FindElement(By.ElementLocator("Value of Element Locator"));
element.click();
element.sendKeys("Input Text");
element.clear();
element.submit();
element.getAttribute(“type”);
String innerText = element.getText();
boolean enabledstatus = element.isEnabled();
boolean displayedstatus = element.isDisplayed();
boolean selectedstatus = element.isSelected();
Operation on drop down
Select select = new Select(element);
select.selectByIndex(Integer Index);
select.selectByVisibleText("Text");
select.SelectByValue("Value");
select.deselectAll();
select.deselectByIndex(Integer Index);
select.deselectByVisibleText("Text");
select.deselectByValue("Value");
WebElement selectedOptions = select.getOptions();
Browser Operations
String pageTitle = driver.getTitle();
String currentURL = getCurrentUrl();
String currentPageSource = driver.getPageSource();
Navigation history
driver.get("https://www.facebook.com/");
driver.manage().window().maximize();
driver.manage().window().fullscreen();
driver.navigate().to("https://www.google.com/");
driver.navigate().back();
driver.navigate().forward();
driver.navigate().refresh();
driver.close();
driver.quit();
Handle Alert
Alert alert = driver.switchTo().alert();
alert.accept();
alert.dismiss();
alert.getText();
alert.sendKeys(“Input Data");
Handle Cookies
Cookie cookie = new Cookie(“cookieName”, “cookieValue”);
driver.manage().addCookie(cookie);
driver.manage().getCookies();
driver.manage().getCookieNamed(arg0);
driver.manage().deleteAllCookies();
driver.manage().deleteCookieNamed(arg0);

Handle frames
driver.switchTo().frame(int Frame Index);
driver.switchTo().frame("frameName");
WebElement element = driver.FindElement(By.ElementLocator("Value of Element Locator"));
driver.switchTo().frame(element);
driver.SwitchTo().defaultContent();
Screenshots Capture
TakesScreenshot screenshot =((TakesScreenshot)driver);
File srcFile= screenshot.getScreenshotAs(OutputType.FILE);
FileHandler.copy(srcFile, destFile);
Actions Class/Mouse Event
Actions action = new Actions(driver);
action.keyDown(Keys.CONTROL);
action.keyUp(Keys.CONTROL);
action.clickAndHold(webElement).build().perform();
action.doubleClick(webElement).build().perform();
action.moveToElement(webElement).build().perform();
action.moveByOffset(xOffset,yOffset).build().perform();
action.dragAndDrop(sourceEle,targetEle).build().perform();
action.release().build().perform();
Manage Timeouts
driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(10, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
welement = wait.until(Syntax: WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, timeout);
driver.manage().timeouts().pageLoadTimeout(30, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
Upload a File
WebElement element = driver.FindElement(By.ElementLocator("Value of Element Locator"));
element.sendKeys(filePath);
Window Handle
String handle=driver.getWindowHandle();
Set<String> handles = getWindowHandles();
driver.switchTo().window(handle);
Capture Width and Height of an Element
Point point = element.getLocation();
int elementWidth = element.getSize().getWidth();
int elementHeight = element.getSize().getHeight();
Window Handle
String handle=driver.getWindowHandle();
Set<String> handles = getWindowHandles();
driver.switchTo().window(handle);
Scroll Down or Up Web Page
JavascriptExecutor js = (JavascriptExecutor)driver;
js.executeScript("window.scrollBy(0,100)");
js.executeScript("window.scrollTo(0, document.body.scrollHeight)");
WebElement element = driver.FindElement(By.ElementLocator("Value of Element Locator"));
js. executeScript("arguments[0].scrollIntoView()", element);
Selenium Grid

Important Maven Commands
mvn -version To check the vesion of the Maven already installed user
system
mvn clean To clean the maven project by deleting the target
directory
mvn complie To compile the source Java classes of the project
mvn test To run the test cases of the project using the maven-
surefire-plugin
mvn package To build the maven project and packages them into a
JAR, WAR, etc
mvn help Command to print the maven usage and all the
available options for user to use

Class //tagName[@class=’classValu tagName.Value of Class
e’] attribute
Attribute //tagname[@attribute- tagName[attribute=Valu
name=’value1′] e of attribute]

@name='btnLogin'] ue1'][attribute2='value2'
]
Contains //*[contains(@type,'sub')] <HTML
tag><[attribute*=sub
String]>
Starts with //tagname[starts- <HTML
with(@attribute, ‘Start tag><[attribute^=prefix
value’)] of the String]>
Ends with //tagname[ends- <HTML
with(@attribute, ‘End value’)] tag><[attribute$=suffix
of the String]>
Matches //*[matches(@type,'value')] N/A

First Child //ul[@id=’list’]/li[1] ul#list li:first-child

Last Child //ul[@id=’list’]/li[last()] ul#list li:last-child
nth Child //ul[@id=’list’]/li[3] ul#list li:nth-child(3)
Text Value //td[text()=‘textname'] N/A
Element preceding some sibling //E2/preceding-sibling::E1 N/A
Sibling element immediately preceding //E/preceding-sibling::*[1] N/A
User interface element that is disabled //E[@disabled] E:disabled
Checkbox (or radio button) that is checked //*[@checked] *:checked
